The Lagoon 420 ... well, maybe I would consider a Gunboat 66 or a Sunreef 62 if I was forced to give up the L420.

I thought I had put FP in it. Gunboats are quite nice, but I wanted to pick popular cruising boats so I put in the some of the most popular brands, and I'm a yank, so I really don't see any australian boats make their way up here! But write anything you would want to see, I'm very curious as there are a lot of people in this group who've been aboard multis for many years. It's interesting that Privilege is the most popular so far, they have an excellent reputation for quality and some wonderful layouts.

Not very well. I had arranged a site where the owner was to build an enourmous roof and I was to occupy a small part. Councils, engineers etc and 4 months overdue. I only have a small area where I am building some of the little bits. On the dagger boards at the moment. Frustrating because I can only do one part at a time so I end up doing 3 or maybe 4 hours then stop waiting for resins to cure.
I have scoured every concievable site within 30 minutes and have found zip, so I sit and prey it wont be long.

I am looking for a full time junior for when the roof is up but with the lack of people available over here it's not looking good either.

Damn. There's no way to beat having the shed in your own backyard if you can possibly manage it.
